Stacey A. Gordon, author of Unbias: Addressing Unconscious Bias at Work
In this first installment of our 2021 DE&I Wireside Chat Series, we will learn from author and strategist Stacey A. Gordon on how to identify unconscious bias and address it through the lens of inclusive leadership.
Participants will reflect on how they manage, influence, and lead others, so their teams feel valued, respected, and a sense of belonging. It will also include some brief context setting on key terminology to understand the invisible nature of how racism is perpetuated and provide the opportunity for the participants to move into conversation or practice to apply the concepts to their day-to-day work.
